The CW has found its Batwoman.
Ruby Rose has been tapped to play Kate Kane/Batwoman, the first out lesbian superhero on television, for The CW's in development Batwoman. The character will first appear in the upcoming Arrowverse crossover event on the network this December.
Rose's casting comes after recent reports indicated that the network had made casting an openly gay actress to play the role of Batwoman. Rose, who is herself openly gay, may be best known to audiences for her role on Netflix's Orange Is the New Black. She has also appeared in Pitch Perfect 3, John Wick: Chapter 2, and will next appear in The Meg.
With Rose's casting, The CW further cements its reputation for diverse characters and actors. The network recently cast transgender actress Nicole Maines to play the first live action trans superhero on the network's Supergirl next season.
